OeriewFie e stepsThe OHSE Guidelines outines e steps to assist an organisation to deeop an OHSE Management Plan.

The steps are as oows:

Step OneSet up a Polic

Develop a Polic to demonstrate a commitment to OHSE.

Step TwoPlanning

Review the tpe o wor to be perormed. Develop

procedures to demonstrate how hazards and riss are

identied and controlled, and how legal and other

reuirements are met.

Step ThreeImplementation

Nominate who will be responsible or setting up the OHSE

Management Plan. Ensure that those made responsible

have the time, resources and sills to get the tas done

sael and without harm to the environment. Implement

a procedure to manage OHSE documentation and ensureregular consultation with all emploees on OHSE matters.

Step FourEvaluation and Inspection

Undertae regular inspections o the worplace to

determine the efectiveness o hazard identication and

ris assessment processes, and control measures.

Step FiveReturn to Wor and Injur

Management

Implement an injur management and return to wor program

to assist injured emploees to return to their pre-injur duties

as soon as practicable ater a wor-related injur.

Compementing the OHSE Guidelines is the OHSE Management Plan.

The OHSE Management Plan contains tempate orms and procedures that ma be used to assist an

organisation to deeop its own pan. The appication o each orm and procedure is highighted throughout

the e steps o the OHSE Guidelines.

Overview OHSE SUBBYPACK | 9

Step oneSet up a poicScope

To deeop a poic to demonstrate a commitment to OHSE.

Objective

To deeop an OHSE poic which demonstrates that the organisation is committed to the heath, saet and

weare o its empoees and anone ese that ma be aected through its organisationa actiities. This

commitment extends to controing the hazards and riss that hae the potentia to harm the enironment.

Action

Deeop a poic which states that:

the empoer is responsibe or OHSE;

the organisation is committed to the continua improement o OHSE management;

the organisation wi comp with a reeant OHSE egisation;

the organisation wi ensure that a empoees are proided with inormation, instruction, training,

resources and superision, haing regard to the hazards and riss associated with the organisations

actiities; and

the organisation wi consut with empoees on matters to do with OHSE.

The poic must be signed and dated b senior management and shoud be made accessibe to a

empoees.

Step twoPanningPreliminar Action

As a e step in seeing to deeop an OHSE Management Pan, the organisation shoud describe in writing

the wor the wi be undertaing.

To maximise the potentia to address OHSE issues, the Pan shoud be deeoped taing into account the

specied wor actiities.

ReerenceOHSE 002Project Details and Introduction in the OHSE Management Plan proides a tempate or

documenting the detais o an organisations wor actiities.

Once the organisation has documented its wor actiities, it shoud start to pan how it wi address the OHSE issues

reeant to those actiities.

As an important step in this process, the organisation wi be reuired to deeop procedures to demonstrate how:

hazards and riss are identied and controed; and

ega and other reeant OHSE reuirements are met.

This is outined in two parts as oows.

PART ONERISk MANAGEMENT

Scope

To deeop procedures which detai how hazards are identied, riss are assessed and contro measures are

impemented within the organisation.

Objective

To deeop procedures, incuding a Sae Wor Method Statement(s), which demonstrates how hazards

are identied and riss are assessed. The procedures shoud coer OHSE hazards and riss reeant to the

wor actiities.

To impement contro measures or OHSE hazards and riss in accordance with the Hierarch o Contro (as

outined in the beow diagram series).

To ensure the aocation o responsibiities and the aaiabiit o resources to identi hazards, assess the

riss and to impement contro measures. Resources and responsibiities shoud aso be assigned to assess

the eectieness o the ris management process.

How wi potentia hazards be identied?

How wi riss be identied and assessed, i.e. High (1), Medium (2), low ()?

How wi contro measures be impemented and monitored?

Who wi be nominated to undertae and reiew ris management actiities?

Senior management must ensure that a empoees are proided with inormation, instruction, training,

superision and resources to get the tas(s) done with minima impact on peope or the enironment, and

haing regard to the hazards and riss associated with the wor actiities.

The organisation shoud consider estabishing OHSE objecties and targets that wi support and maintain

the eectieness o the OHSE Management Pan. As an exampe, an organisation might set an objectie

to impement ris management processes reeant to the wor actiities. The target might be to assign

OHSE 004Hazard identification,

risk assessment and controlINSERT ORGANISATIONwill not commence construction work at a place of work unless:

the principal contractor has provided INSERT ORGANISATIONwith a copy of the relevant parts ofits workplace OHSE Management Plan (or equivalent);

INSERT ORGANISATIONhas undertaken an assessment of the risks associated with the workactivities and has provided to the principal contractor a written Safe Work Method Statement(SWMS); and

INSERT ORGANISATIONhas provided induction training to all employees.

INSERT ORGANISATIONmaintains and updates the SWMS, and provides the updated SWMS to theprincipal contractor.

INSERT ORGANISATIONidentifies the potential hazards of the proposed work activities, assess the risksinvolved and develops controls measures to eliminate, or minimise, the risks. The risk management processis carried out in consultation with employees.

IDENTIFY HAZARDS:

INSERT ORGANISATIONbreakdowns specific work activities into job steps to assist in identifying allpotential hazards. These work activities are detailed in a SWMS. The SWMS is a list of job steps and otherwork related practices.

For each of the work activities and associated job steps identified in the SWMS, INSERT ORGANISATIONhas identified potential hazards and their risks.

To assist in identifying hazards and risks, INSERT ORGANISATIONhas considered the use of resourcessuch as codes and standards, industry publications (i.e. safety alerts; hazard profiles for specific tradegroups), workplace experience and consultation (i.e. Toolbox Talks).

ASSESS RISKS:

INSERT ORGANISATIONhas identified a risk class/ranking for potential workplace hazards by referring tothe categories ranging from high to low in a Risk Matrix.

The Risk Matrix is used to determine the level of danger or seriousness (i.e. the consequence) of the risk,

how likely it is that this risk will occur (i.e. likelihood/probability) and therefore how detailed controlmeasures will need to be to eliminate or minimise the risk.
